Exactly. Your rant that I replied to, explaining your take on what justifies lethal force, didn’t touch on the circumstances. It bases lethal force on the value of the hours of life you sacrificed to earn what was lost, implying that we are talking about life for life, an eye for an eye. I sympathize with that but cant use that reasoning to come up with a just system. The amount of life you lost could be zero. The entire justification is the circumstances. Maybe you forgot what you wrote and didn’t write, and expect people to read your mind.

No, I know exactly what I wrote. My time is too precious to allow someone else to steal it (by taking my things) and if I am there when you are taking them (as is the situation upon which my statement was based) then I will and do have the right to make the situation “just.”

Mind reading is not necessary; however, the basic association of the article upon which my statement was made would show the difference between robbery and theft. I pointed that out and you got upset - too bad.
